Hello VHL!
With the trade deadline approaching at midnight tonight, we thought this would be the perfect time to announce that, for the weeks of September 10-16th, we will be having a Themed Point Task Week! The theme for this special Point Task week will be: Other members! In order to qualify for the Theme Week Bonus (we'll get to that shortly), you must submit a Point Task that focuses on at least one other member in the league. They can be in the VHL, or VHLM, the choice is yours; but your submission must focus on another member, or their player. Also, while the same member may be highlighted in each form of Point Task, no two Point Tasks in the same category can focus on the same player! The full rules regarding Theme Week Point Tasks are as follows: Written Task
500 Word Minimum, replaces Media Spot PT Submission for that week (additional weeks for hitting 1000/1500/2000 words can be claimed as regular PT weeks)
Must highlight a unique player/member (No duplicates, list will be updated in OP)
Graphics
Create a Signature, replaces Graphic PT Submission for that week
Highlight a unique player (No duplicates, list will be updated in OP)
Podcasts
10 Minute minimum, replaces Podcast PT Submission for that week
Must highlight 5 unique players/members (No duplicates, list will be updated in OP)
As a way to prevent multiple members focusing on the same member, you must post in here to claim your Point Task. For example, if I wanted to highlight Keaton Louth in a Media Spot, I would post in this thread to claim his Written Task before starting. The list of claimed members will be updated as frequently as possible to prevent duplicate claims. If a member you claim has already been claimed, you will receive a PM letting you know that you need to select a different member.
Now, since you've gotten this far, you're probably wondering, "What's the Bonus?" Well, any Point Task submitted on theme will qualify as a Doubles Week! But that's not all! All Themed PTs will also earn you an addition 4 Uncapped TPE! SO, just for submitting a themed PT, you will be earning an extra 10 TPE vs. a regular Point Task! Now that's a bonus, and a great way to start for any S64 draftees who are creating this week!
As a note as well, because we were a little late announcing this if you have already completed a PT for this week you may use the theme PT next week. However it cannot be claimed for both weeks.
